If you want to find a place near Chicago, you really want to stay at Kim's place in Richmond. Kim is the best and nicest host, accompanied by her lovely dog Olive and the interior of the whole house is stunning! We stayed here for one night. In the evening we went out for dinner at the Brat House: a typical American dinner experience and surprisingly they had a vegetarian burger option as well! The next morning we went for a trip to lake Geneva (10 minutes drive), which is a must see we think. I've visit a lot of Airbnb places but this is one of my favorites!

Evelien2017-07-28T00:00:00Z

Very lovely home! Kim was super nice and we had a fun trip.

Kacey2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

This was such a beautiful home, we'll definitely be back for our next trip to Lake Geneva or anywhere else in the area. Kim has an amazing knack for interior design and has created a wonderful space for her guests. She is also a great host, and we look forward to visiting again!

Sarah2017-06-03T00:00:00Z

We stayed at Kim's place for a weekend trip to Lake Geneva. Her place is about 15 mins away and was perfect for our trip. Love all the vintage charm of Kim's place. She had everything ready for us (clean towels, bedding, etc.) Having the whole upstairs (2 bedrooms 1 bathroom) was more than enough space for us. Kim was super nice and accommodating (she let us use her fridge for some food we bought). Would definitely stay again if back in the area.

Kathleen2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

Kim was incredible. She helped make my girlfriends birthday surprise very special. I highly recommend that anyone stay with her!

Dane2017-09-02T00:00:00Z

I loved the vintage style rooms! Kim was very welcoming and her dog is also friendly. Recommend to anyone that needs a place to stay in the area.

Elva2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

Kim is an amazing host, so kind and extremely flexible. We were in the area for a photography workshop at Camp Wandawega and luckily found her place to stay for two nights. We had the entire second floor to ourselves with an amazing bathroom. Her home is so lovely and clean, it truly felt like a home away from home! I highly recommend staying here if you are nearby. You'll leave well rested and with a new friend!

Cozy studio with full/stocked kitchen & full bath in country/farm setting (no farm animals). Comfortably fits 2/3 and is located in separate building from house. Enjoy outdoor kitchen w/fireplace set in front of wood barn. 10 Min. from Lake Geneva,WI

Cozy studio with full/stocked kitchen & full bath in country/farmette setting on 5 acres. No large farm animals but 2 miniature donkeys, chickens, ducks and barn cats. Comfortably fits 2 and plenty of room for floor air mattress for 1 more. Although main bed is "sofa bed" it is a queen size double mattress and very comfortable. Space is located in separate building from house on second floor. Very clean. Retro/diner kitchen with all cooking needs. State snowmobile trail is right next to property. Sorry but no pets allowed.

What a beautiful studio. Has everything you would ever need and is exceptionally clean. Much better than staying at an overpriced hotel room in Lake Geneva. And Monica is a wonderful host. I would definitely book again.

Mike2015-06-22T00:00:00Z

This was by far my best Airbnb experience yet! Ok- my first, too, but it'll be difficult to top. Not sure if Monica or the accommodations were better...I'll go with our fabulous hostess, but our studio in the country did exceed expectations. The combination was just what we needed; from the gracious welcome and care and attention, to the setting in the country and cozy room and wonderful evening at the outside fireplace, to Colin- about the best barn cat ever. Thank you again, Monica.

Kurt2016-04-17T00:00:00Z

Monica made herself available by phone to check us in. She had lovingly left muffins, yogurt with fresh fruit, juice, milk, cream, eggs for our use. The place was absolutely adorable and much larger than it appears in the pictures. Her attention to detail is impeccable when ensuring that guests have everything they need at their fingertips :) The grounds were delightful and we really enjoyed seeing the donkeys, chicks and her three delightful kitties that kept us company as we walked the grounds of her lovely property. Monica was friendly and kind and cheerful yet unobtrusive I was there on business and only wish I had more time to spend in this delightful place.

Julie2015-09-28T00:00:00Z

This coach-house studio is more spacious than you would think--and QUIET! We had no idea the roosters were crowing until we stepped outside (and boy were they ever!). The place is IMMACULATE and the retro style kitchen is just as fun as can be. Monica is a wonderful host, gave us a full farmette tour, apples for the donkeys, and made sure we had nummies for breakfast (we had brought our own just in case, but what a sweet touch). The property is gorgeous and 10 minutes from Lake Geneva. So easy to get to and just a breath of fresh air for us suburban folk. Oh, and that pull out bed is the most comfortable one I've ever slept on! Awesome, we will be back!

Suzannah2015-06-02T00:00:00Z

We spent two evenings at Monica's cabin and enjoyed our stay very much. Beautiful place, massive backyard with swing set/playground and cute farm animals in the fenced in area next to the yard. On our last morning Monica brought us a delicious quiche to fill us up for the trip back. Very much recommended!

Alex2016-09-06T00:00:00Z

Monica's place was amazing. It was our first Air BNB experience and it was a good one. We will definitely use it again. Monica was more than accommodating and her place was beautiful (WAY better than the pictures). She invited us to explore her property and we got to pet donkeys and her cats. Simply amazing!

Daniel2016-07-03T00:00:00Z

Monica is a great host. She shared her wonderful farm with us and made us feel very welcomed. The studio was as it looked in the pictures, cozy, rustic, and comfortable. We opened the balcony door and the side entrance door, the feel of the fresh air was amazing. I was a little worried about the fold out bed, but it was super comfortable, as I am a big guy (over 240lbs). Lake Geneva was a 15 minutes away. I suggest heading west on Route B, then coming up Lake Shore Drive to check out the mansions. All and all a great relaxing experience and super private. She will definitely see us again.

Robert2016-05-30T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful time! The overall experience was well worth the trip, but it was the little touches that made our stay memorable. Monica went out of her way to make us feel welcome and at home. The place itself was immaculately clean, cozy, and comfortable. It also doesn't hurt that the property is home to chickens, ducks, quail, miniature donkeys, and the sweetest cats on the planet. We were tempted to sneak a donkey home with us, but ethics and logistics won out... maybe next time we'll bring a bigger car. ;-) Thank you, Monica!

Nature Lover's Hideout
Old oaks shade this one bedroom, 2nd story garage apartment high on charm. To us, this place is magic. Built in the early 1900’s, it maintains its vintage summer home feel. We'd like to share with you the snowy egrets, blue herons, and other wildlife that make their home on the spring fed lakes Tombeau and Benedict. Wild, green growth surrounds the lake, and on clear nights the milky way shimmers overhead. Peace and tranquility, but only 15 minutes from Lake Geneva.

You will stay in the coach house, a separate building from our home. It sits down the hill from us, and next to Lake Tombeau. A sky light illuminates an open floor plan living and kitchen space, complete with full-sized refrigerator, oven, stove top, dining table and microwave. We also provide you with basic coffee pot, grinder, toaster oven, pots, pans, utensils, silverware and plates. In the living area, you can sip coffee in the sitting area, watch tv on Chromecast or movies on the DVD player. Guests three and four can sleep on full size futon mattress. Listen for the owls and coyotes on the small balcony while the tree frogs sing through the night.
Separate bathroom (shower stall only) and a private bedroom with a full bed. Walk up one flight of stairs to access the apartment. Keyed entrance.

Nippersink resort area. Lake Tombeau is a wetlands area with boating access. People as well as animals make their home around this lake. There is plenty of nature, but you are not isolated.

Dan and Jane's place was perfect for our weekend getaway. We were visiting family on Powers Lake and it was VERY close and convenient. We went into Lake Geneva for a day also which was a short distance away! Everything was clean and the hosts were extremely good with communication! We would stay here again!

Brittany2017-08-06T00:00:00Z

A room with a view! Charming, cozy, quaint apartment, peaceful and quiet!

Penney2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

Do you like magic? Well, I sure do! And honestly, this place is nothing short of magical. It felt like an author's retreat house - idyllic and secluded enough to feel peace. When my friend and I went onto the lake, we were the only ones on the water; it was just gorgeous. Jane was great. She let us have our privacy, but would reply to my texts immediately and clearly cared about our experience. This is the first time I actually felt pretty sad about leaving an airbnb. It was just that lovely.

Erica2017-09-05T00:00:00Z

It's a great space for a weekend getaway for two. All the amenities you would need. Private and quiet. Bring DVD or know how to use chromecast if you plan up watch any tv. View doesn't match the picture due to construction, but that didn't matter to me. Very pleased with my stay. Would rent again!

Megan2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

Dan and Jane were great hosts! They have a wonderful space. I would stay with them again. The place was clean and comfortable. A Secluded private space yet accessable to many local attractions. We stayed with Dan and Jane for serval days and saw many of the sights in the area. Two days we went spent in Milwaukee which is an easy one hour drive.

This well-appointed ranch has open plan living area and newer Ikea kitchen. There is a corner fireplace in the living room and a rec room and bedroom bathroom suite in the finished basement. Quiet area. The lake is a couple of blocks away.

1. There is a queen size bed in one bedroom; a full size Murphy bed in a second bedroom; a twin size futon in a third bedroom; and a full size bed in a bedroom downstairs. I also have a large couch in the living room and a matching smaller couch in the rec room downstairs.
2. I have sheets & blankets for all the beds & couches. I will have enough towels for ten people.

The area is very quiet and safe. You will enjoy walking or bicycling around the neighborhood and taking in the scenery. Lake Elizabeth is the main feature, but there are beautiful fields and hills surrounding the house as well. Two public beaches are nearby and a public boat launch is less than a mile away.

My sisters and I stayed this weekend for some quiet time. Comfortable home to stay in for 5 adults. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and chatting. Patricio was a wonderful host and we appreciated him allowing us to enjoy our weekend at his home.

Nicole2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

Patricio's place was great and I would love to stay again. Place was clean and had everything we needed. Would recommend to anyone wanting to go visit Twin Lakes.

Michael2016-07-25T00:00:00Z

Beautiful home in such a perfect location. Patricio was a great host. He allowed us to drop off our bags prior to check in so that we could enjoy Twin Lakes worry free. We can't wait to go back to his comfortable and cozy home. I would defiantly recommend staying here.

Fernando2016-06-13T00:00:00Z

The deck was great! It was a nice place for a group to stay for the weekend. There were a lot of belongings already there upon arrival (food in the fridge, dishes in the dishwasher etc.) which made it difficult for us to have enough space for our stuff.

Callie2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

My family of 4 had a pleasant stay. The house was as described by others, simple yet quiet and comfortable and a good location for visiting Twin Lakes, Powers Lake or Lake Geneva. Pat was a welcoming and easy to communicate with; he met us on arrival to explain the house and started our visit well. We would stay here again.

Brian2016-07-18T00:00:00Z

The place is great. The neighborhood is very quiet. It's a short drive to lake Geneva. The only complaint we had was that the futon is not comfortable.

Agustin2017-07-03T00:00:00Z

Pat's home was lovely for our weekend family getaway! He made every effort to make us comfortable and even left us some treats. There was more than enough room for the six of us, and we especially enjoyed the beautiful backyard. The house is on a quiet street and is a short drive to Lake Geneva. Highly recommend!

Marci2016-08-21T00:00:00Z

Tranquil location in a quiet neighborhood. Close to many summer, fall, and winter activities. Ten minutes to Lake Geneva. Cozy room with private entry and exclusive use of bath. Gorgeous lake views with a semi-private outdoor space with fire pit.

Comfy carpeted room has a futon with 2" memory foam pad. Bath has 2 sinks and a shower. College frig, binoculars, and smart phone/computer speakers are in the room. WiFi and cable TV. Great views of Tombeau Lake and semi-private outdoor space w/fire pit.

The neighborhood is a quiet residential lake community, a little bit away from everything. Besides the 3 lakes and surrounding homes, we are pretty much in farm country, but only a few minutes to Hwy 12 and less than 10 minutes from Lake Geneva. East Troy/Alpine Valley, Wilmot, Grand Geneva are also minutes away.

Bill and Sandy were amazing hosts with great communication! The accommodations were clean and comfortable with a great view of the lake! Highly recommend this place!

Mike2016-06-12T00:00:00Z

We loved the warmth and hospitality we experienced at Bill and Sandy's. The weather was unseasonably cold and rainy and we were in town for an event, so unfortunately, we didn't have much time to enjoy our digs more or explore the grounds. The time we did spend there was great. Sandy was a wonderful host(we didn't get a chance to meet Bill) and their house is so inviting. We felt right at home and enjoyed the little time we had to chat with her. Loved that we had a room with an unobstructed view of the lake and a pair of nesting swans to watch when we awoke. Also appreciated having a private bath right across the hall. We hope we have the opportunity to return when we can spend more time there.

Suzanne2017-04-30T00:00:00Z

Bill and Sandy are perfect hosts. Their communication, easy check-in process, helpful nature was great. They kindly invited me to join for dinner and also for a potluck the next day. They are very friendly and willing to give helpful suggestions, but also respect your privacy. They allowed me the use of their refrigerators to store bulk food as I was relocating across states. The room is cosy and opens out to your almost private lawn that dips down into the lake. The nights were great w/ tranquil moon kissed lake, and sounds of nature - crickets, frogs, fireflies adding to the allure. Overall, I had an amazing stay.

Vic2017-06-06T00:00:00Z

Bill was very accomodating and friendly. Unfortunately, Sandy was out of town this weekend but I'm sure she would've been great as well. Bill had good suggestions about where to eat/go in Lake Geneva; the whole experience made us feel really at home. Would recommend to anyonr who wants an affordable, memorable weekend getaway!

Meghedi2017-04-23T00:00:00Z

Another wonderful stay at Bill & Sandy's! I stayed for 4 nights each time and loved every day of it. They're very laid back and welcoming, and the room itself is perfect. Great view, private bathroom access, mini fridge w/ freezer, etc. Highly recommend!

Emily2017-07-14T00:00:00Z

Totally enjoyed the warm welcome from B & S; who knew just how to judge my needs & make me comfortable. Great folks!

Katherine2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

Bill and Sandy were phenomenal hosts, we really enjoyed the jasmine tea and the entire aura of the home. They went out of their way to make sure we can stay another night, everything was clean too to bottom and the epitome of cozy. The view from the backyard is amazing, especially during the night with the full moon reflecting on the lake, it was gorgeous. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience we will be back :)

Karolina2016-06-20T00:00:00Z

While this house and bedroom is optimal for peace and comfort (wonderful lakeside access to chairs and view from the bedroom, large clean private guest bathroom, tempur-pedic mattress topper, own mini fridge in room) , it's Sandy who is the best reason to stay here. She's a vibrant yet soothing person, generous and thougtful hostess. I had prompt and friendly communications before my stay and helpful recommendations about nearby eateries. An absolute joy.

Like new, lakefront home on 62' of "flat as a pancake", Lake Elizabeth frontage with sand bottom and pier. Home features premium finishes throughout. With soaring windows and beautiful sunsets, it's a quiet retreat, but only 90 minutes from Chicago.

This ideal lake house is located just outside the Chicago metropolitan area - only an hour from O'Hare Airport and 90 minutes from the Loop.
Whatever your pleasure, boating, fishing, dining, swimming, golf, antiquing or just a bit of R&R this house is right for you. Spend endless hours kayaking or paddle boarding (all provided free). Summer fun right off your private pier.
In the winter visit nearby ski areas (as close as 10 minutes away) or cross country ski across corn fields and golf courses less than a mile from the house.

Our experience was great! Maria made sure to touch base with me before our trip to provide all details. The house had all the amenities we needed and easily fit 8 people with room for more. We had all adults but it was very kid friendly and I would go back with my family. Overall it was a great time and I would stay again.

Melissa2016-06-13T00:00:00Z

Beautiful home - great location in the lake! Well stocked kitchen/bathrooms/etc. We would definitely return!

Erica2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

I rented Maria's home for the weekend with a few friends and had an amazing experience! Her home is absolutely stunning, with plenty of room and big windows that look out onto the lake for a relaxing weekend away. Everything was very well organized and Maria's clear communication made the experience seamless. I would definitely stay here again and recommend to anyone!

Kelsey2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Very beautiful home with lots of space and amenities! Maria was very helpful and answered all of our questions before and during our stay and even provided a list of recommendations for what to do while we're in the area. It's a perfect home for a girls getaway trip and only about 20 min away from Lake Geneva! We had an amazing time! Thanks Maria!

Natalie2017-06-04T00:00:00Z

Maria was very accessible for calls or text. The check in/out process was a breeze. There is plenty of room in the home and the pictures are exactly what you'll find once you arrive.

Maria was a wonderful host:she made us feel at home, was instantly available when we needed to communicate. She gave us all possible information to make our stay easy and comfortable. You can feel that this place IS her home! Location is perfect, twenty minutes away from Lake Geneva, a very quiet spot. Very easy to get there from Chicago. It is a gorgeous place for anyone looking for peace and oudoor activities. We felt like in a dream the whole time. Thank you Maria and Mike. I can'wait to come back! Carine

Carine2016-10-24T00:00:00Z

It is my second time at the lake house. Love it! The location is perfect, views amazing! Maria's home is full of light, most welcoming. She is a great host, giving precise explanations on how to use everything and where to find good places. The Twin Lakes donuts are the best I had in my whole life :-) Lake Geneva, its boutiques and lively atmosphere is 20 minutes away. So charming! One of my best vacation spots! Thanks, Maria!

Carine2017-04-15T00:00:00Z

This home will not disappoint! It is exactly as described and pictured, and even exceeded my expectations. The main floor is comfortable, open and spacious. The kitchen is filled with more than you could need to prepare, cook and serve. The upstairs is larger than I had expected - the bedrooms are big. All bathrooms are spacious. And to top it all off, the house was extremely clean upon arrival. The backyard is small, but the lake view, access and equipment (canoe and paddle board) make up for it - as does the grill and fire pit. One neighboring house is quite close, but no one was home during our stay. It was a fantastic home for our "Girls Weekend". Maria was an EXCELLENT host. She provided clear and quick communication throughout the process - before, during and after our stay. She will make sure you know what you need to know and that your stay is comfortable. We didn't do too much exploring in Twin Lakes (spent most of our time at the house or in Lake Geneva) but we did check out Sand Bar Twins Lake per Maria's suggestion and had a great time after a day out on the boat! Maria's home is just a quick drive from Lake Geneva, which was perfect for our weekend. Overall, I'm so pleased with the experience and the home. It's great to know that I got what I expected, and then some! I would love to stay again and would highly recommend to anyone else.

The views are the best! Overlooking a conservation area with the sunset reflecting on the water without other houses in the background...priceless!
About Time has a spacious yard for lawn games, a glass backboard adjustable basketball rim, water toys, a park for all the kids just 200 yards East, a great restaurant to walk to or drive the boat up to called the Sand Bar, spring fed clear water, great fishing & skiing, beautiful conservation area to kayak around and so much more!!!

The hot tub overlooks this beautiful front yard looking West at the sunset.
The stairs have hand rails on both sides to help those who need it most.
The game room has ping pong, darts, foosball and X-Box with about 25 games to choose from.
Why do we love it so much? We can have so many people there and the place doesn't ever seem too small...seating for 21 upstairs and 15 downstairs. From the road you would never know how roomy it is inside.

Troll around the 750 acre lake and look at the houses....I love doing that!
Visit Lake Geneva and take a boat tour or Geneva National for the day.
Chain O'Lakes State Park has it all for the outdoor enthusiast including camping spots.

Our rental experience was great (group of 15 people). Plenty of room for everyone, the house was fully equipped with everything we could possibly need, scenic views and plenty to do in town. Jeff was a terrific host. Communication was easy and Jeff was very kind. There was an issue with the hot tub not heating, but everything else was terrific.

Magdalena2017-01-02T00:00:00Z

Awesome! The house is huge, perfect for our large group of 12. There were plenty of seats, beds and all of the necessities were provided for us. It's right on the lake and the view is to die for (we're really hoping to come back for the summer to get the full lake experience). The jacuzzi was wonderful, even though the weather was chilly. It's only about 15 minutes from Lake Geneva, so we were able have a nice group dinner. Jeff and his family are so sweet. Their home is beautiful. We highly recommend this home.

Kristina2017-02-26T00:00:00Z

The view is gorgeous, the kitchen is well stocked with utensils, dishes, appliances, and other supplies. All beds were comfortable and it was generally great for our group of 13. Our hosts were very kind and even had a neighbor bring over breakfast one day, which was unexpected and nice. Would definitely book again.

emily2017-04-02T00:00:00Z

"About Time" set the stage for a memorable four day family reunion and 80th Birthday celebration for my mom. The house is very well equipped and the host is very responsive. We rented a pontoon one day and kayaked from the house many times. We used the yard, the deck and the kitchen extensively. For our group of very mixed ages the lower level gave the kids an awesome place to hang and play while the upper level was for group activites and meals. Don't miss the town of Richmond. The shops and historic candy store and Gingerberry down the road are, in my book, better than Lake Geneva. That said, we enjoyed the boat tour of Lake Geneva and thoroughly enjoyed it too!

Jennifer2017-07-28T00:00:00Z

The house was a perfect place for our extended family to gather. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking and serving large meals. The youngest generation appreciated the games, game room, and large yard while the older and oldest generations appreciated that multiple gathering spaces both indoors and out lent themselves to quiet conversation.

Lisa2017-07-17T00:00:00Z

This home was the perfect place for a girls weekend. Every single girl was blown away by how beautiful this home was. We would definitely book again.

Perfect place for a relaxing weekend!

What a gem! The views from the house, porch and hot tub of peaceful Lake Benedict were exactly what our crew needed. A quick drive from Chicago but a world away. Wi-fi worked well, plenty of parking, the hot tub was clean and so relaxing! Plenty of room for our group of 9. Really appreciated how clean the house was when we arrived! Beds were comfortable. Loved being able to open the windows and let the lake breezes through. I would highly recommend this spot for a weekend getaway!

Teresa's place is a great place for a small group of people to visit. With beautiful sunset views over the lake from the living room, we enjoyed our time of relaxation and hanging out.

What a great little retreat. Everything was as described and we had a great stay.

Great house if you don't mind it being outdated (structure as well as furniture, linens, etc) Beautiful lake and great if you rent a boat. Immediate lake access not ideal for swimming as there are many weeds around deck. Expansive front lawn overlooking lake which is fun for outdoor games, bonfires, grilling, etc.

Unplugged Lake Home. Spacious Dining Room with a table that seats 12 and open Living Space makes for a great gathering space. The Lake with private dock is the real gem. There is no wifi and no cable but plenty of outdoor space and in case of rain, there are DVD's, puzzles, games and books
The house does require stairs. It is set below the street level and there are about 8-10 steps down from the parking pad to the home itself.

The space is open and very inviting for family and friend gatherings

Residential area about a 1 miles walk to town. Town has a grocery store, restaurants and bars and of course a bakery with great donuts for a easy morning at the lake

Great location and family friendly home with lots of room. Good fishing and swimming too!

Rustic, homey stay! So great to unplug and turn our brains off for a week. Really refreshing environment and such a beautiful view of lake Mary. Many bedrooms that allow a lot of guests to stay. Well water, but we made it work and once you're used to it it's fine. Laura provided plenty of bottle water which we used for coffee and drinking. Bonus...two fridges! We stocked up the car and there was an abundance of room in both fridges for all the food/beverages we brought in preparation for a week of dinners. The dock is so nice and boat rental is very easy in the area. The outdoor space is large and has outdoor seating and a nice fire pit. The outdoor space is also very quiet and peaceful due to being in the no-wake zone of Lake Mary. Such a peaceful and nice stay. Laura even provided a cute and thoughtful s'mores kit for my family and I upon arrival. Rustic, but truly a little slice of Twin Lakes paradise. Loved the area and stay so much we're already looking into renting again next summer!

Sonja2017-07-10T00:00:00Z

Great home right on the lake for a family trip. Full stocked kitchen. The dining room table is awesome! We had a great time. Thank you!

Julie2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

This is a typical laid back lake house..a great place to chill.. make fires.. talk and play (URL HIDDEN) wifi.. or cable didn't bother me a bit.. or any of the grandkids.. no ipads etc.. but lots of fishing and playing.. the well water did make the toilet water yucky after a few days.. but i am a well water country girl.. it's something you certainly can look past.. we all had a good time

Karen2017-06-27T00:00:00Z

Clean roomy cottage. Kitchen well equipped for relaxed meals. Lovely dining room with large table and a lot of chairs. Good patio with comfortable chairs for gazing out at the lake. All you need is good weather.

My place is close to Lake. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, families (with kids), and furry friends (pets).

Mark and Olga were great hosts. We stayed for the Thanksgiving weekend and hosted Thanksgiving dinner for 12 people. The house was plenty big for that group to celebrate the holiday comfortably and the kitchen was well equipped with most everything we needed to make dinner. The home was clean and comfortable for our family of 5 to stay and being able to bring our dog was a HUGE bonus! Olga was easy to get in touch with if needed and even mailed back some jewelry and our dog leash that were left behind by accident. We will definitely stay here again if in the future.

Stacey2016-11-26T00:00:00Z

Mark and Olga really go out of their way to make you feel at home! They provide almost anything you could possibly need. The home and yard are beautiful and spotless. The area is very peaceful and quiet. We stayed for a week with our 2 dogs. It was amazing. Thanks for being such wonderful hosts. We hope to visit again.

Jeff was a great host who answered every question we had & went above and beyond to let us use water equipment and other household items. The house was great too. Couldn't have asked for a better house on the lake. We will definitely be back!

Eric2016-07-06T00:00:00Z

This place was great! Jeff is an excellent host. He answered all of my questions almost immediately. I will definitely be trying to come back.

Do you have a large family that wants to vacation together on a beautiful private lakefront property in Southeast Wisconsin? Are you ready to walk a short distance across the lawn to enjoy "the best" swimming and fishing? Or do you need a large estate to host a private party/corporate event for 100 guests? Large lakefront estate on Powers Lake includes 5000 square feet of living space on a 2 acre site plus two additional buildings can accommodate another 16+ guests.
Spacious Front Yard too.

This listing is for the main building on the property, referred to as the lodge. Two adjacent homes have beds for another 18-20 guests. We are happy to rent these also.

Bassett House is 1821 sf with plenty room for large families and groups. No extra fees for extra people. There is also a self inflating queen size air mattress with space for it in the large bedroom if needed. A cleaning fee and Wisconsin sales and Kenosha County taxes is required

Very soon summer of 2017 will be ending and whole new season(s) beginning. The lakes will be clearing up because the rec boat traffic will fall off and the fishing will improve. Early fall is a great time to golf. Fall means colors emerging, some trees and bushes are starting already(late Aug). There are hunting opportunities close by New Muenster Wildlife Area and Bong Natural Park. We can help get you time at a "no license required" pheasant preserve.
Wilmont Mountain(the "Matterhorn of the Midwest") opened to skiing last year on Dec 14. Bassett House is heated for your all seasons enjoyment.
And rates are lower. Check us out for your holiday gatherings, ice fishing, winter festivals, etc.

Quiet neighborhood, nice neighbors, respect them, they will respect you. Treat our house as it were your grandma's.

We loved the location, the neighborhood, the amneties, the layout of the home itself; everything was conducive to a relaxing weekend of enjoying family!

Amanda2017-05-21T00:00:00Z

The house is great and really close to the lake. Tons of space, and the game room in the garage is a really nice extra touch. Communication was great leading up to our stay and the notes in the house helped us find everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again.

Tristen2017-09-03T00:00:00Z

The house was very spacious and the beds were all very comfortable. Rick was nice enough to leave us a drawn map of the walk to the lake, as well as having the grill ready to go for us. The neighbors were nice enough to recommend a few places around town and we had an overall enjoyable experience.

Sam2017-06-04T00:00:00Z

Best stay ever! We were blessed enough to get to meet Rick on the day we arrived and his genuinely welcoming personality made us feel right at home immediately. Rick went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Even though 2 out of our 5 days there were rainy the gameroom offered much to do and the many movies and books made it easy to enjoy our time indoors. The quaint look of the Bassett House was very deceiving, the vaulted ceilings and large open floor plan made enjoying our family time comfortable and cooking in the spacious kitchen was very enjoyable. There are so many things that Bassett House has to offer that it would take forever to list them all but the thing that stood out the most was our kind and generous hosts. We will most definitely be staying here again!

The home was perfect for our trip. It was very roomy and had a nice big deck in back. The kitchen had nice new appliances and it was very handy to have a washer and dryer available. We even had access to the garage (and bonus game room) so we could store our bikes safely. The beds and pillows were really comfortable! Restaurants and lake access were a short walk away. We will be back!

Juli2017-06-11T00:00:00Z

Bassett House is within walking distance to Lake Mary - a picturesque lake where boys fish for bass from the dock. It's also an easy drive to Lake Michigan and Geneva Lake for a bigger water experience. Rick and Kim were very helpful - recommending fishing spots for us & promptly responding to any inquiries. They even left some really amazingly delicious cookies for us.

Charming house, great waterfront location but the house is very old and has a lot of electrical and mechanical problems. The worst thing is that the owners are not transparent about their unusual house rules. The public profile does not state that they guests must do a perfect house cleaning and wash, dry, and fold all sheets and towels. The dryer available at the home takes about five hours to process the loads typical for 8 people (the house advertised capacity). You need to start washing at 7:00 am on the departure day in order to leave the house by the 12:00 checkout time. Way too stressful for a vacation time! The value received from this house is much below the rate the owners charge.

Zbigniew2017-06-18T00:00:00Z

Susan's house is great! We spent a lot of our trip just hanging out in her back patio area, which had a few picnic tables, benches, charcoal and gas grills. The way her lot is set, youre not right on the water (there's another house in between the patio and the water) but it's still a really nice space. And there's a private walk down to the pier that we used for swimming. The house has three stories and comfortably fits 8 people. We also brought our bikes and enjoyed some scenic routes around the lake. All in all it was a great trip, our friends were already asking about when we could go back.
